U.K. doomsters MY DYING BRIDE have posted the following message on their official web site:

"We have been locked up in the studio since the beginning of April and are busy recording their new album. According to the band, at least five songs have already been recorded with more in the pipeline. No details on song or album titles are available, yet. John [Bennett], the drummer from The Prophesy, with whom the band have played live in the past year, is also behind the kit in the studio, filling in for regular My Dying Bride drummer Shaun Taylor-Steels (who is still having problems with his ankle after injuring it badly last year)."
